PENGARUH KONSENTRASI BAHAN PENGENDAP DAN LAMA PENGENDAPAN TERHADAP MUTU PEKTIN HASIL EKSTRAKSI DARI KULIT DURIAN

ABSTRACT: Pectin is high value functional foods are widely useful in the formation of a gel and a stabilizer on the making of jelly, jam and marmalade. This research was aimed to know the effect of sedimentor concentration and deposition time on the quality of pectin extracted from durianpeel and to know how to extract pectin and addeconomic value on durian   peel  waste.This  research  was  conducted  using  a  completely  randomized  design with  two  factors,  namely  the concentration of the alcohol ; 65%, 75%, 85% and  95% and the settling time, 14 hours, 16 hours, 18 hours and 20 hours.  The  parameters  analyzed  were  yield,  moisture content,  ash  content,  equivalent  weight,  methoxyl  content  and galacturonic levels. The results showed that the concentration of alcoholhad highly significant effect on yield, moisture content, equivalent weight, methoxyl content and galakturonat levels, and provided no effect on ash content. Deposition time gave highly significant effect on yield, moisture content, equivalent weight, methoxyl content and galakturonat levels and provided no effect on ash content. Interactionsof deposition time and concentration gave highlysignificant effect on  yield,  methoxyl  content  and  galakturonat  levels, and  had  no   effect  moisture  content,  ash  content  and  equivalent weight. Concentration of 95% alcohol and a 20-hourprecipitation produce the best quality of durian peel pectin.
